A friend of mine posted this on my facebook wall, and I thought it would be great to share with supporters of the HUB. The article, “Bicycling Isn’t Recreation, It’s Transportation,” is completely in line with what I see as the HUB ethic. I’ll refrain on the commentary, and let you draw your own conclusions. Here’s a clip and the link:

“To those who might argue that many American cities are making progress in supporting bicycle traffic, let me say this: there are two major problems with the current approach most cities are making: they largely treat bicycling as a form of recreation and not as a serious form of transit, and they do not actively develop models of inter-agency government cooperation that truly support inter-modal transport.”
